Since joining National Spine & Pain Centers in 1983, Dr. Friedlis has helped expand the practice into the thriving, nationally recognized leader it is today. He is passionate about the science of pain management and committed to delivering the most effective therapies possible to each of his patients. Throughout his 25+ years of experience he has actively enhanced his knowledge and expertise through continuing education, training and research, a pursuit that has established him in the region as the foremost practitioner of regenerative therapies for musculoskeletal injuries.In addition to being skilled in conventional interventional techniques, Dr. Friedlis is one of few physicians in the Washington, DC metropolitan area trained to perform Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, and is one of the first doctors in the area to use Stem Cell Therapy for musculoskeletal injuries, in particular knee and hip arthritis and has been showing positive results over the last 2 years. “I decided …to bring the Regenexx Protocols into the practice, as I believe that they currently represent the highest state of the art for Stem Cell use. The research is strong and ongoing, which is important for the ongoing development of this science.” He is responsible for introducing these advanced regenerative techniques into the arsenal of treatment options now available at Stem Cell Arts, an affiliate of National Spine & Pain Centers.

Dr Friedlis genuinely cares about his patient (me!). His explanations are clear and understandable. I feel that in this age of corporate-driven medical decisions, I am incredibly lucky to have Dr Friedlis as my doctor.

I would recommend him to others. He has helped me and been understanding of my situations. If I would recommend him this means I trust him to do the right things for people.

First visit was just to be evaluated and make a game plan. He listened and I feel confident of the next steps. He ordered some imaging and we can make accurate decisions based on the results. Overall good experience so far.
